 | Multi-Stage Flash Desalination: Modeling, Simulation, and Adaptive Control Subjects: Engineering & Technology; Civil Environmental and Geotechnical Engineering; Electrical & Electronic Engineering; Clean Tech; Water Science; Systems & Controls; Novel Technologies; Explore a Viable Resource for DesalinationThe world's freshwater supplies are rapidly depleting and seawater is being positioned as a major feasible replacement in the search for a sustainable water source. Focused on large-scale multi-stage flash (MSF) seawater desalination plants, and based on research conducted on a real 18-stage plant, Multi-St Abraha Woldai received his PhD from the University of Bath, UK in 1997. From 1985 to 1999, he worked in the Water and Electricity Department, Government of Abu Dhabi, in various areas. From 1989 to 1999, he participated in the development of the modeling, simulation, and validation of data for MSF desalination plants on behalf of the Directorate of Power and Desalination Plants, Water and Electricity Department, Government of Abu Dhabi, and the International Foundation for Water Science and Technology in the field of desalination plant control. In addition, Dr. Woldai has authored/coauthored several research papers on power and desalination. |
